  • Chauncey was the 10th child and seventh son of Mamie and Ralph Smaldone. Ralph was a grocer, bondsman and small-time bootlegger in North Denver. However it was his brothers Clyde and Eugene Smaldone who pulled down the bulk of the media attention in the family's life of crime, which started with bootlegging and car theft in the 1920s. He was the man who watched over Gaetano's, the family's popular Italian restaurant which opened in 1947. He was big, over 6 feet tall, barrel-chested, strong and "an outgoing guy". Almost 20 years younger than his two siblings, Chauncey grew up childhood friends with Smaldone nephews "Fat Paulie" Villano and "Young Gene" Eugene's son. Chauncey was first arrested in July 1945, when he and seven others were detained in a gambling raid. Periodically, there followed arrests for gambling, bookmaking, income-tax evasion, assault and jury tampering. The three brothers and Paul Villano were in and out of jail for various crimes over a 40-year period, almost always related to gambling. By 1982, the four had amassed 12 felony convictions. One Denver police Detective once told reporters, "Every time we raid one of these four men, we find the telephone number of the other three handy for 'laying off' bets."
